Find the perfect skirt with the Skirt Box

Recently, Skirt Sports came up with a fun new idea: the Skirt Box. Basically you get their top five skirt products to try and then you get a discount based on the number of items you keep. Usually, you will get the Lioness, the Gym Girl Ultra, the Happy Girl, the Lotta Breeze capri, and the Tough Girl tights. After you order, Skirt Sports contacts you and figures out the best Skirt Box for you.

Deb from Confessions of a Mother Runner and I thought it would be fun to show you what those skirts look like in real life. Deb and I both wear a size small, but our figures and personal style are quite different. As you can see from the photos, she’s an inch or so taller than I am (and has amazing hair), but I have long legs for my height.

Meet the Skirt Box skirts!

1. Skirt Sports Lioness Skirt – this is one of Skirt Sports shorter skirts with 4″ shorties with grippers. Deb loves this skirt, but it’s a little short for my preference.
2. Skirt Sports Gym Girl Ultra – this is one of Skirt Sports’ top sellers. It’s a bit longer than the Lioness and has 5″ shorties. I love this skirt and wear it whenever it is hot out (which is often in Virginia.)

3. Skirt Sports Happy Girl – this is currently Skirt Sports’ longest skirt with 7″ shorties. I own a crazy number of these and wear them for running and casual wear. This was the first time Deborah had ever tried one on!

4. Skirt Sports Lotta Breeze Capri – I live in this capri for 6 months or more of the year. It’s my go to when the temps are between 35 and 65 (aka much of the fall, winter, and spring in Virginia.) The skirt part is similar in length to the GGU, but it has lightweight capris attached.

5. Skirt Sports Tough Girl – this skirt plus tights is a combination of a skirt like the one attached to the Lotta Breeze Capri and a pair of boot cut tights. It’s a cute “around town” skirt, but I’ve never actually run in it.

Bonus skirts:

Cascade Skirt – this is one of Skirt Sports’ newer skirts. The shorties are a little longer than the Gym Girl, but the skirt is shorter and slightly ruffled. It’s a cute skirt, but Deb would make the shorties shorter and I would add another ruffle to make the skirt longer. (See, we really do have different styles.)

Redemption Capri – this is a great capri. I think Deb has all the colors (I prefer the Lotta Breeze because Pockets!, but I’ve heard a rumor that soon the Redemption Capris will have pockets!)

As you can see, Skirt Sports has options for everyone! You should check out the new Skirt Box if you aren’t sure what style would work best for you. Check out Deb’s post on her thoughts about the skirts.

LOVED this post and the video. I have never worn a skirt but definitely going to check it out. You say you wear an S ? Is it tight around the waist ? I like a low sitting waist. For Athleta gym pants (and capris in general) I usually buy M.Karen @ Fit in France recently posted…Blog-versary & blog break

That’s nice that you can try on everything. I have long legs and a bit of a bootie, so I like things a little longer. There are definitely some options that seem reasonable for my shape.Jenn recently posted…friday five 2.0: five winter running rants

I like that the one skirt does have the elastic around the under shorts, I do find that sometimes the short tend to ride up for me so that is definitely a bonus.Lacey@fairytalesandfitness recently posted…Winter Rants

Cute video! It is funny how the same size can look so different on each person 🙂 I think the box is a fun idea as long as it is easy to return the ones you did not want. Great skirt review!Mary Beth Jackson recently posted…Hey baby, what’s your sign? Stitch Fix fashion!

I haven’t been able to embrace the running skirt, but the patterns are cute! I tried some on at Kohl’s last month, and despite the amazing clearance prices, I just couldn’t pull the trigger. I do like the capris though!

Its nice to see all of the styles lined up one after another. And I’m sure you and Deb had a fun time trying them all on together. Yay for runner friends!Kathryn @ Dancing to Running recently posted…Friday Five – Potpourri v. 18

Here we are, a crazy number of days into Virginia’s Stay at Home order. Today, the Northern Virginia area began Phase 1, which means more things will be open at reduced capacity and with masks required in establishments. To be honest, it’s not really going to change my behavior (we are super careful), including that […]
